Screen Readers and CSS, Part II: Farther Out of Style (and Deeper into Content)

Through live demonstrations, participants will learn how various CSS declarations affect content exposure and reading order in several popular screen reader/browser pairings. In addition, we will offer robust solutions to overcome screen reader limitations and browser inconsistencies.
